Hi Kathy, Google Chrome will absolutely definitely not itself put unwanted programs and malware on your PC. Chrome is one of the top 3 internet browsers used in the world and will never ever behave like this.

However, malicious websites you have visited, USING Chrome to browse to them, WILL do that, most especially if your PC has no anti-malware program installed and running. This is what I feel has happened to you. A great deal of freeware programs people download nowadays come with such unwanted 'payloads'.

What I advise is this (I have absolutely no connection with these people and no reward except beneficial experiences) is to visit

A BEX error is Something to do with a Script Bug or registry error and Roughly translated Its a Buffer "Exception" Bug

NOTE: When I googled this I discovered the BEX error (code) also is used with other applications and browsers.

You can remove Google Chrome like any other Windows program. Follow these steps: Click the Start menu on your computer taskbar. Select All Programs. Select Google Chrome. Select Uninstall Google Chrome.Click the Yes button in the confirmation dialog box.

The uninstall process will begin and all your Google Chrome browser and application shortcuts will also be removed. Alternatively, you can double-click Add or Remove programs in Window XP's Control Panel or Programs and Features in Windows Vista, select Google Chrome in the list, and click the Remove button.

Google Chrome leaves behind your profile information in case you wish to reinstall in the future. To delete this information, go to \Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome in Windows XP or \Documents and Settings\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome in Windows Vista.
